Allister Caird is a triathlete living in Perth, Western Australia. The laid back West Aussie is known for his running prowess. He is the current Australian Duathlon Champion, a nod to his triathlon strengths.

Taking up triathlon in 2012 with the inaugural Mandurah 70.3, Allister is a relative newcomer the sport. He started to find his rhythm after pushing his performances in 2014 with a 10th overall age-group placing at the Ironman World Championship, Hawaii the pick of the bunch.

This result set the stage for an impressive conclusion to 2014 with a strong showing at Ironman Western Australia, 8th overall in a time of 8:45:29, a new course record for the 25-29 age group.

Allister took his professional licence at the end of 2015 and has been working hard to develop his bike over the long course whilst still being able to progress the run.

The Stadium Triathlon Club member is currently coached by Adelaide based, former Professional Triathlete, Matty White.

After a really disappointing performance last weekend, I sought the expert opinion of my good friend @baldwin_nick who is the co-owner of @endurancemovement / @embikefit alongside @kate.luckin .
We picked apart my interpretation of my previous bike fit. Boy, was I off! Yesterday was the first chance at redemption and real test under load (175km long ride with an #atta 40km TT in the middle). The results speak for themselves. I needed that one and it felt GOOOD!
Check out @embikefit for a more detailed account of the changes and process of the fit in the coming days ✌️

#FBF It was a privilege to wear the @triaustralia suit at @powermanzofingen ...even if it was 2 sizes too small.

Made the podium over the weekend @sufferfesttri #Rottnest but, make no mistake, the boys up front were on totally different levels on Saturday. Final few corrections being made @embikefit before Ironman Western Australia in just over 2 weeks

45€ a day for a mechanical rental >8kg ...would’ve paid double for that view! #fbf

Threshold love! 💀@brooksrunningau

A 15.51 5km on a hilly windy run circuit followed by 35hm/hr bike on a drag strip was unsurprisingly not enough to keep my state Duathlon title over the weekend. Happy to let @jonneysammut hold onto it for a while*. Next up, this weekend’s ATTA 2up with @olistenning ✌️📸 Tim @focused_ninja_photography •

Back to the lake this weekend to catch up with some old friends #ATTA #timetrialtuesday

7th place for me today at ITU long course Duathlon World Championships. I think it was enough to keep my fan/s happy! Special mentions to @bigtb02 who had rotten luck with two flats and still flew on the last run and as always, @seanralph_1 for convincing me to race. Couldn’t be here without the support of my sponsors @brooksrunningau @fusionmultisport @sigma_sport_germany @endurancemovement @envisionmedicalimaging @pioneercyclo @cosmocoffeeperth and @elite_cycling
